Tang Orange Powdered Instant Drink

Tang is a world-renowned powdered instant drink brand, most famous for its orange-flavored mix. Originally developed by food scientist William A. Mitchell in 1957, the brand became a cultural icon in the 1960s after its use by NASA's Gemini space program and subsequent Apollo missions, leading many to associate the beverage with space travel.

Today, Tang is manufactured in several countries to cater to regional tastes, with significant production centers in Brazil, Mexico, Thailand, and the Philippines. The brand has evolved from a simple vitamin-C fortified breakfast drink into a global powerhouse with a wide variety of fruit flavors.

Ownership of the brand has transitioned through several major corporate mergers and acquisitions. Originally a General Foods product, it later became part of Kraft Foods. Since 2012, Tang has been owned and managed by Mondelēz International, which continues to drive the brand's growth and production across international markets.
